"frequently updated feeds were polled more frequently"

Even better, they supported pubsubhubbub, and were a very early adopter. I think even now, most readers don't support this - it's one of the reasons I settled on Newsblur as a replacement. When I tested with my own feeds, I saw new items appear within seconds of publishing them.



Good point - update latency was definitely a large part of why I chose Newsblur.
